The rulers of the fairies are Queen Titania and her consort Prince Oberon.

Other words for fairies are: fae, faerie, faery, the Little People, the Green Men, the Good Folk and the Lordly Ones. The name is probably a combination of the words fae “friend” and eire “green.” So Faerie means “Green Friend.”
